Hello,

I am looking for information re: Henry Wilfred Rimmington born in Sheffield England married Ada ( maiden name unknown)

Henry and Ada had a son named James Henry Rimmington (1900-1975) married Dorothy Eastwood (1920-1995)

Dorothys parents were Albert Eastwood and Rebecca (maiden name unkown)

Any information would be helpful on any Rimmington and I am looking for Ada and Rebeccas maiden name.

Thank you all in advance!

Please contact me erinsouthwell@rogers.com

What for?:confused:

I can't find a Henry Wilfred RIMMINGTON, but there is this houselhold in the 1901 census index:

1901 census (index only)
Census place: Brightside Bierlow (Sheffield)
James Rimmington 26 Labourer General N K Elms
Ada Rimmington 22 Yorks Sheffield
William Rimmington 3 Yorks Sheffield
Henry Rimmington 0 Yorks Sheffield

...where Henry could be James Henry, whose birth was registered shortly before the census:

GRO Births MAR Qtr 1901
RIMMINGTON James Henry
Sheffield 9c 644

If you order the birth certificate, which you can do online here (http://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/certificates/), this may clear up any confusion with the father's name and also give Ada's maiden name.

This may be the parents marriage:
GRO Marriages SEP Qtr 1896
RIMMINGTON James
FISHER Ada Alice
Sheffield 9c 638

...agian a certificate would be needed to prove the link.

For the Eastwood family I think the floowing are the marriage of the parents amd the birth of Dorothy...

GRO Marriages DEC Qtr 1898
EASTWOOD Albert
DAVIS Rebecca Jane
Ecclesall Bierlow 9c 659
(note - 2 other names on page, not necessarily a couple)

GRO Births SEP Qtr 1920
EASTWOOD Dorothy (mother's maiden name: DAVIS)
Sheffield 9c 1074
